Is it Almost June??

Yep, now that May is over halfway through, I figure I'd better finally post our happenings from April. I know you are dying to know. Aaron celebrated his birthday, pictureless, though I somehow managed to schedule his family party on the same night as Adelyn's first night of swimming lessons. Here they are celebrating together at the pool.




She was so excited that first night that she was kicking and shrieking getting ready to go. Excitement sometimes waned as she found out she had to do some scary things that she didn't really want to do, but she must not have been too traumatized because she still wants to go swimming everytime she sees a pool.




For Aaron's birthday my family went in to get him a Vitamix (yes it will change your life, you should get one too!). Adelyn and I decided to make our own playdough in it one day. Jadyn thought it was pretty awesome...she was convinced if I made the playdough, it must be playdough that she could eat!


For Easter we headed over to the Egg Dash that my sister helps put on every year. She said in the 10 years she has been working there, this was the first Easter Egg Dash that didn't get rained on. I guess there are some advantages to a late Easter....it was soooooooooo beautiful that day!!



Instead of candy, some of the eggs have notes inside telling you to come pick up a prize at the prize table. Adelyn was VERY excited to win some dress up items and had a hard time waiting until we got home to open them. Here she is modeling some of her new accessories. Velma anyone?





Last but not least, certainly one of her favorite pasttimes of any month is doing "tricks" with Daddy. This was a new invention and a big hit with her new Ariel (of course) beach towel.

I'm glad I'm not the only that has a hard time keeping up with blogging! I need to do like 3 months in review...oh well! I love the swimming pictures! And the video of Adelyn is adorable - Dave does that with the girls too, although half of them are too big for it now. :)
